A dog died on October 4, 2006 in Albany, New York after it was shocked at least twice with a police officer's Taser, one cycle lasting at least 30 continuous seconds. "When police stopped using the Taser, they saw the dog was dead." - Albany Democrat-Herald

A dog died on May 23, 2006 in Forth Worth, Texas after being shocked at least six times with a police officer's Taser.

A cow died on April 12, 2006 in Spokane Valley, Washington after it was zapped repeatedly with a police officer's Taser. No charges are pending against the cow's owner.

A research project being conducted by John Webster, professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has showed that Tasers can kill pigs.

A horse also died sometime over the last couple of years but I am unable to find the date and location details. I'll keep digging.
